Arithmetic · working shown

  1. Third-placed BSP polled 1,71,408 votes, 16× the 10,644-vote margin.

    1,71,408 ÷ 10,644 = 16.1

  2. The top two polled 69.3% of votes; the other 9 candidates 30.7% between them.

    (2,39,826 + 2,29,182) ÷ 6,77,114 = 69.3% · 2,08,106 ÷ 6,77,114 = 30.7%

  3. Turnout of 59.9% was 6.1 pp above the state's median seat (53.8%).

    59.9 − 53.8 = +6.1

  4. The margin narrowed from 4.1 pp in 1998 to 1.6 pp.

    1.6 − 4.1 = −2.5 pp

  5. The seat changed hands: BJP in 1998, SP in 1999.
